Algiers have released a video for their new single, We Can't Be Found.

The meandering, alt-rock track is the latest to surface from the Atlanta band's upcoming third LP, 'There Is No Year', out on January 17. It follows the previous early single Dispossession in previewing the record.

"I always feel the most successful music videos are the ones that are reflective and convey the mood of the song to the listener over everything else. In this instance, we collaborated with the artist Lloyd Benjamin, trying to frame some of his sculpture work in a more abstracted way, referencing the urban dystopian cityscapes found in the German expressionist films of the 1930s. The result aspires to be somewhere in between the unsettling work of Darius Khondji and the set design of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari or Fritz Lang's Metropolis."

The band will support the album with a UK and European tour in February and March, including stops in Brighton, London, Manchester, Glasgow and Leeds.
